Under the surface: what the vinwind premium report sees
A short video on why a premium report is worth having: lot photos show the metal, but the money is hidden in the closed-off components behind the panels.
Headlights and SRS after a crash, Golf, Q5 and Rogue cases, and a video glossary of damage.

A short video on why a premium report is worth having: lot photos show the metal, but the money is hidden in the closed-off components behind the panels.

A long 3D breakdown of a frontal impact: what sits behind the bumper layer by layer, what suffers and which photos to ask for before you bid. Voice-over in Ukrainian and English.

A long 3D breakdown of a rear impact: what sits behind the rear bumper layer by layer, what suffers and which photos to ask for before you bid. Voice-over in Ukrainian and English.

A 3D flood breakdown: the water in the cabin rises level by level, and each level shows what is already under water and what that threatens after purchase. Voice-over in Ukrainian and English.

A 3D breakdown of the documents: Clean, Salvage, Rebuilt, Non-repairable, Certificate of Destruction, Flood, Bill of Sale, Title Pending, Not Actual Mileage and Export Only, and what each means for the price and customs clearance. Voice-over in Ukrainian and English.

A working headlight does not confirm that the housing, mounting tabs and brackets are intact. The video covers four possible problems and the specific places to check.

A deployed airbag is a reason to check the related SRS system, not to automatically replace the whole list from the video.

Front End is the declared damage zone at the front of the car. The label on its own does not establish the exact direction of the impact, its depth or the condition of the hidden components.

In the Audi Q5 2020 video case, a small external damage area is compared with the list of work behind the grille and the costs given by the author.

A video with a damage diagram, an OEM parts list and inspection priorities for a Golf GTI. The 3D model explains the zones; it does not reproduce a measured impact.

A video case covering the cooling components and the reinforcement behind the grille. A 3D model of an Audi Q7 is used for the explanation, not an exact reconstruction of the Q5.

A video explainer on water, corrosion and the M74/B42 connectors in the Rogue material. The illustrative body in the video is a Hyundai Tucson.

A landscape video glossary: damage labels, start statuses and documents, body components and geometry. Examples are explained with 3D illustrations.

A dented grille, and a steel spike inside: radiator, intercooler, air conditioning, airbags with pretensioners. 50 items and $5 635 of repairs.

The report selected 138 items, but that is a checklist, not 138 broken parts. Nobody knows the total from photos.

The wet carpet was dried, but a window regulator does not work and the battery goes flat overnight. Salt water creeps up the harness to the connectors.

Run and Drive only means that at check-in the car started, engaged a gear and moved. Starts and Stationary mean even less.

The insurer declares a total loss when the repair costs more than a threshold set against the market price. The threshold depends on the state. Salvage is not scrap metal, and rebuilt is not a fresh history.
